In 2003 I was walking out of my aunts house and I looked down at the snow and the brightness like blinded me. I then began to see gray floaters in my eye. I went to the eye doctor they told me they were just floaters and they would go away in a few days. The floaters turned into flashing and the next thing I know I have a small blind spot in my eye. I saw an eye specialist who said auto immune diseases cause these symptoms. I went to my doctor & had some tests ran for HIV and a bunch of other stuff and came up empty.
Last year I had a problem with the nerve in my toe. I was putting lotion on and I noticed that when I rubbed from my toe up my leg it felt like a spider web going up my leg. It would hurt a little in my toe as well. I went to my doctor and he ran a bunch of tests. My ANA was positive but, everything else was normal. About two months ago I set my elbow down on the table and screamed in pain. It was my nerve that hurt. When I touched my elbow/forearm in a certain spot it spidered up my arm. My doctor again gave me prednisone and like my toe the pain went away.
Now for about the past two weeks or so the nerve pain went into the top of my left hand. It sometimes feels like its burning and when I stretch the top of my hand I can feel the spot stretching. If I touch the top of my hand in that spot it spiders up my fingers. I felt today it now going into my right hand. My doctor does not know what is wrong with me and I demanded that he send me o a neurologist. I went to a rheumatologist a few years ago and tested negative for the rheumatoid factor and sarcoidosis. Sometimes I have muscle spasams. When I was on steroids I had a leg spasam that lasted three days. Sometimes my muscles feel week and then sometimes they feel better.
I don't know but, I can't into the neurologist until July 13th. I am about to go crazy trying to figure this out. I'm tired of worrying and I just want to know what's wrong with me and deal with it. It's much worse not knowing. Does anyone have any symptoms like this?
